SPUGers:
The following note confirms that we could hold our future meetings at the
SpeakEasy cafe, in downtown Seattle. I figure this would be an extremely
popular option for those working in the downtown area, and an extremely
unpopular option for everybody else.
So, those (10%) of you on this list who actually attend our meetings,
what do you think? And more importantly, can you offer us another
more suitable meeting place, or a suggestion where we could find one?
P.S. Although we won't necessarily be able to get a location with
all the attributes we might want, we don't need to make an immediate
decision until 1/2000 anyway, so we might as well keep hoping and looking!
